Frequently Asked Questions

The word collagen comes from the Greek word “kólla”, which means glue. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body and a basic component of skin, bones, ligaments, cartilage and joints.

Collagen peptides are small fragments of the collagen protein. They are split by a gentle process with enzymes. Due to their small size, they are perfectly bioavailable for cartilage. The high content of glycine, proline and hydroxyproline, which make up more than 40% of the total spectrum of amino acids in Collamin collagen peptides, makes the product unique among protein hydrolysates, as the content of glycine and proline is 10 to 20 times higher. Thanks to their special form, they are recognised by the cartilage cells and can stimulate the body’s own collagen production there. This makes them ideal for a healthy diet. In the form of a neutral tasting and smelling powder, immediately soluble, it can be easily mixed with water, milk or fruit juices and consumed cold. Collagen peptides are proteins that act as real cell boosters. Due to their special shape, they are recognized by the cartilage cells and can stimulate the production of the body’s own collagen. Therefore, they are ideal for a healthy diet. In the form of an odorless and tasteless and instantly soluble powder, it can easily be stirred into water, milk or fruit juices and consumed cold. Collagen peptides are proteins that act as true cell boosters.

Amino acids are organic molecules that play an important role in the body. The essential amino acids must be absorbed through the daily diet, as they cannot be synthesised by the human body. Collamin’s collagen peptides contain 9 of the 10 essential amino acids. Semi-essential amino acids are non-essential amino acids that cannot be synthesised in sufficient quantities by the human body due to Human age (from 25-30 years), the recovery phase after intense sports activity, the recovery phase after illness or injury, prolonged physical exercise.

A total of 10 to 15 grams per day is recommended. Dissolve a measuring spoons or sticks of Collamin in your preferred liquid. Collamin can be consumed at any time of the day.

The collagen has no severe side effects and is safe to take if you consume between 10 and 30 grams of collagen per day. In rare cases, slight accompanying phenomena can occur, such as bad breath, slight digestive problems, fullness and heartburn. This can occur with an unfamiliar intake of animal proteins. In this case, we would advise you to start with a smaller amount of collagen (e.g. 5g) and then slowly increase to the desired dosage.

Some clinical studies have shown that visible improvements can be seen after 3 to 4 months of collagen supplementation.

Collagen should be stored at room temperature.

Yes, none of our collagen powders contain added sugars and they are low in carbohydrates.

Yes, there is no risk of overdose or harmful effects when combining our collagen products.

Collagen is a safe ingredient and supports the body during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, we recommend only the pure collagen products: Natur’Active and Natur’Beauty. Check with your primary care physician beforehand.

Studies have shown that the required daily dose of collagen is at least 10 g. A capsule can only take up to 500 mg of product, therefore you would have to take at least 20 capsules a day. Hence, powder form is the most convenient and effective way of taking collagen.

It is the most powerful form of collagen due to its small size (3 amino acids linked together). Thanks to its small size it is directly absorbed by the intestinal tract.

Yes, collagen is an easy-to-absorb protein and studies have shown that your body absorbs all of it.

Collamin products contain type I and III collagen, which make up 90% of the collagen in the body. Even though Collamin products don’t contain type II collagen, types I and III equally benefit type II tissues. Regardless of the type, collagen is always broken down into the same bioactive blocks in our digestive tract.
